Description

This Salmon, Asparagus, Lemon, and Herb Foil Pack recipe offers a simple and healthy way to enjoy perfectly cooked salmon fillets paired with tender asparagus and bright lemon slices, all infused with fresh herbs and olive oil. The ingredients are wrapped in foil packets and grilled to lock in moisture and flavor, making it an easy, delicious meal ideal for a quick weeknight dinner or outdoor cookout.

Ingredients

Scale

Seafood

  • 1 pound salmon fillets

Vegetables & Herbs

  • 1 pound asparagus, trimmed
  • 1 lemon, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill

Others

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Prepare foil sheets and arrange ingredients: Tear four sheets of aluminum foil. Place one salmon fillet on each sheet along with one-quarter of the asparagus and lemon slices.
  2. Add olive oil and season: Drizzle olive oil evenly over the salmon and vegetables on each foil sheet. Season with salt and pepper according to your taste.
  3. Add fresh herbs: Sprinkle chopped parsley and dill over the salmon and asparagus to enhance flavor.
  4. Seal the foil packets: Fold the foil sheets over the ingredients, sealing them tightly to create secure packets that will steam the contents during grilling.
  5. Grill the foil packets: Place the foil packs on a medium heat grill and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the salmon is fully cooked and the asparagus tender.
  6. Serve: Carefully open the foil packets to avoid steam burns and serve the salmon and asparagus while warm, enjoying the infused lemon and herb flavors.

Notes

  • Make sure the foil packets are sealed well to trap steam and cook the ingredients evenly.
  • Cooking times may vary depending on the thickness of the salmon fillets and the heat of your grill.
  • You can substitute fresh dill and parsley with other herbs like thyme or basil if preferred.
  • For a milder flavor, remove lemon seeds before slicing.
  • This recipe can also be cooked in an oven at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes if grilling is unavailable.
